Developer Comments on Game Dungeon

[Erasmus Roterodamnsus]

As requested, here's a compilation of developer responses to Game Dungeon videos as of June 2022. Will be updated if more are brought to my attention.

Good work

[Rarefoil]

Beat me to it, good on you. I was taking way too long to do so. And I never would have made it look this nice. 

 

There are some stuff I want to add to this though. 

 

First off, Revenant got a Dev comment too (under the Part 2 video), Ben Cooley:

 

 

And there's an additional part to Christian Boutin's comment, in a reply to himself:

 

I also have some misc. comments that are pretty closely related to the concept of the devs replying, but not close enough to really want to add the pictures. But I'll mention them anyway.

 

* There's a dev (Michael Pohoreski) on Need for Speed 1 (PSX version) in the comments of Test Drive 3, since the same team that made NfS1 made Test Drive 1 and 2... but they didn't say they worked on Test Drive 3.

* Someone in the Helious comments section claims to be Sean Puckett's child. She will not confirm nor deny Sean Puckett being an alien clone.

* Lastly two people claim they got in touch with the devs of CarnEvil. They seemed to really liked their work on the game and at least one expressed wanting to do a sequel or a remake, but the game has a lot of legal issues wrapped up in it.

 

Genuine question: should any replies from the devs in their own comment thread be added to this? Raymond Larabie has talked a LOT in his thread about the game and its development, and honestly its a treasure trove of information. But at the same time, it's not exactly a response to the Game Dungeon or anything Ross said, they're replies to other people. BUT, on the other hand, if the Cyril Cyberpunk interview is anything to go by, Ross loves hearing about the kind of stuff Raymond's talking about. So, maybe it could go in the Quarantine forum topic? Or is fine being added here and there are no rules?

Christian Boutin also replied to two other people in his comment thread (one of them he later deleted), and both of them I find amusing, but I have the same question for those parts.

 

That's all I got for now, will check in later if I can summon up the will to add anything more.

Here's some more Game Dungeon developer comments and anecdotes I found. We learned more about the uncanny Antony Crowther. Searching YouTube comments is hell.

 

Bonus!

@Erasmus Roterodamnsus the harry buster comment got clipped at its bottom

[Zabeus]

Damn guys this is good stuff, I logged in just to say thanks to both of you. I thought about going in and searching for these myself at some point, but as you pointed out YouTube comments are hell to parse. I'm glad you went and did it so I'm never tempted to waste my time.

 

I hope Ross saw this.

[Rarefoil]

I'm back with more. Since I got no answer to my past question on if the Dev replies should be included, I have concluded that it doesn't matter and I might as well. And Ross has been alluding to a Game Dungeon follow-up for a bit, so I figure this was now or possibly never.

 

First off, here's the Christian Boutin reply that he later deleted. Lost media here folks.

 

And for good measure, here's later replies he did:

 

I think the main takeaway here is that Christen is pretty chill and cool.

 

And here's Raymond Larabie:

(older screenshots mixed in because either the original comment got deleted or has no profile pic now, or some other reason)

 

(this one may have been a reply to an additional comment? I dunno)

(I feel you could use this as a valid excuse to cheat the timers in this game)

...Honestly, there's a solid chance he could come back and offer some replies in the future.

 

Lastly, here's that clipped Harry Buster comment from before, in full glory. Not sure this counts as a dev comment, but bizarrojerry has a lot of knowledge.

 

 

Now, there's 26 Game Dungeons since Harry Buster that could have dev comments, but I might have to bow out, at least for now.

I mean I'm super behind on Game Dungeon as it is.
Hopefully, Ross or anyone else can get some enjoyment/use from any of all this.

Also, anecdotally, I remember another place that Raymond Larabie made another post somewhere discussing Quarentine. I think it was at MobyGames, but I can't find where it was. I recall him mentioning a cheat code to make the taxi customers nude and giving a shout-out to Hard Rock Cab, the JP PS1 version.

Whoops, forgot to include one of the comments Raymond replied to.
